Welcome to IWETHEY!

New Re: That's where I got the idea
In your personal OpenOffice.org1.0/user/config directory, there is a file named javarc. Have you tried putting your jdbc jar filename in the CLASSPATH defined there?

Sorry if you've already tried this as this is just a guess.

New I set the class path in Tools->Options->Security
But I'll check on javarc to be sure.

No offense taken. After all, I'm just trying to learn more about this.

New Got another clue
By digging into the error logs, I found that OOo thinks that Java isn't installed.

Yeah, that would do it.

The problem is that this is on OS X and it doesn't run the setup like the Windows or Linux versions do. I'll try running the setup manually.


More news as it happens...

I had to put 5 different versions on my linux box and keep switching the jvm until it saw it... ick.

New All righty now...
I ran the setup utility and tried to get it to setup Java support for me. Unfortunately, it looks like that piece is only supported in Solaris, HP-UX , Linux and others. OS X puts them in a non-standard location so OOo can't find it.

I think I'll try setting the classpath manually in a javarc file.

Meanwhile, I'm using Fink to install unixODBC so I can get some kind of connection going here. Besides, it's always good to learn something new.
